$80 AirPods, $32 Quince Leggings, and More of Our Writers’ Favorite Cyber Monday Deals

Daly’s already tracked over 300 Cyber Monday deals across dozens of retailers. So far, her favorite picks include AirTags at the lowest price they ever reach, the magnesium spray that’s been helping many of us at the Strategist get better sleep, a $13 cashmere-like Gap beanie, Everlane’s puffer for more than half off, more than half-off cashmere at Bloomingdale’s (a steal!), Away’s Strategist-approved best overall carry-on, and the magnesium spray that’s been helping many of us at the Strategist get better sleep. But if you want to see her full list, you can peruse here.

For the true bargain hunters, Polk has been rounding up over 110 deals that are now under $50. Two of her top picks for Cyber Monday are discounts that got better since Black Friday: Clinique’s popular moisturizer went from $60 to $40, and a cozy Banana Republic crewneck is now an extra 20 percent off. And while our best overall spice grinder didn’t get any cheaper, it’s still an exceptional deal at $49. For more, see her roundup here.

And for the even truer bargain hunter, I’ve rounded up a slew of under-$25 picks, from the verging-on-boring personal items worth restocking to cheap-but-still-meaningful gifts and stocking stuffers. My favorites include J.Crew’s infinitely layer-able (and seasonally appropriate) cotton turtleneck, an “incredibly supportive” Skims scoop bra, and Benefit’s trademark lip and cheek stain. See the rest of my roundup here.

A sale becomes truly great when it hits half off, Schwartz says, and Cyber Monday is one of the only times of year you can find tons of things for 50 percent off or more. Schwartz has already found over 100 of them, but their top picks include more-than-half-off Lululemon leggings with pockets, a Strategist-favorite Dutch oven from Staub (at a rare and hard-to-beat almost 60 percent off), and one of the few half-off LEGO deals left — a Star Wars set. For more extra-good, half-off deals, see their roundup here.

There are so many deals to sort through, it’s dizzying. So to help, Druckman has been rounding up all the best deals on items that Strategist staff have either tested ourselves or heard about from experts we trust. Her personal favorites include three “best overall” picks from Strategist stories that are worth splurging for now that they’re on sale: our best overall underwear, the best luxury sleep eye mask, and our favorite hair conditioner. For more, see Druckman’s roundup here.

Cyber Monday was made for starting (and, ideally, finishing) Christmas shopping, says Guo, so she’s been spending her day finding things on sale at every price point that would make a great holiday gift. Among her top picks are an essential pair of noise-canceling Bose headphones, cozy merino socks by Comme Si, and Dieux’s reusable forever eye masks.For more, see all of her top gift picks here.

Guo also tracked down a bevy of teen-specific gifts on sale. You can never go wrong with more socks, especially Nike’s classic and teen-beloved white crews, or a properly plush blanket that’s also easy on the eyes. Read all of her top picks here.

If you’re shopping for kids specifically, Corsillo has you covered. Her favorite convertible high chair, which her son used as a baby and is still using today as a toddler, is 30 percent. American Girl’s collaboration with Jeni’s is cheaper than it’s ever been, and the most recent edition of her favorite all-terrain stroller is 40 percent, meaning you save a whopping $200. For more, see her full roundup here.

And if you’re looking for a gift for your partner, brother, dad, or any other man in your life, Zhao, who’s been finding gifts for men of all types, has you covered. His top picks, of the over 90 he’s found, include a credit-card-size tracker the man you’re shopping for can put in his wallet if he has a habit of misplacing it, a portable tire inflator, and a red-light back pad that actually makes your back and hips feel better. And for good measure, he added three more picks that are at their lowest price ever: Jackery’s generator, Chaco’s clogs, and a Sony TV. For more, see his full roundup here.

Amazon’s Cyber Monday sale is actually 12 days long, and, accordingly, packed with deals. Pariso has been scrolling the site for all the best ones in every category. But if you need some guidance, she says, “Go big or go home.” That means getting pricier items while they’re well-discounted, like DJ Furby, which is one of the hottest toys of 2025, an Airwrap, or a Vitamix. For more, see her roundup here.

Walmart is another big-box retailer running a big sale for Cyber Week, and Gillespie’s found a fair number of surprisingly good deals there. Her three favorites: a very well-reviewed robot vacuum for half off, a faux Christmas tree,and a TCL TV that does all the “required Roku TV things.” For more, see all her picks here.

Quince almost never has sales, so any sale is worth checking out. But its Cyber Monday sale is especially worth it, as some of our favorite Quince items are discounted today (and today only; the sale ends tonight). Her top picks include an elegant and under-$50 jewelry case, high-rise pocketed leggings, and a bamboo bedding set that will keep you just warm enough. Find all her favorite deals from the Quince sale here.

Polk has been busy tracking and updating over 40 of the best picks from Nordstrom’s sale, which has been live for over a week. Her standouts? “Hero products” from Bombas (comfy calf-length socks), and a $300 Le Creuset in any color you’d like. Find the rest of her favorite deals here.

While Cyber Monday’s a great time to stock up on older tech releases at record-low prices, it’s also great a time to stock up on some of this year’s latest and greatest releases, McMahon says. He’s found the best deals on old and new tech alike but most strongly recommends the AirPod Pro 3s (the newest generation), which are at their best price since they were released, Bose’s new QuietComfort Ultra headphones that successfully blocked out all noise on a recent flight McMahon took, and one of his favorite e-readers, the Kobo Libra. Find the rest of his top tech deals here.

Apple doesn’t run sales on its own site, but you can find many of its products discounted on other sites like Amazon and Best Buy right now. To make it easy on you, Gillespie rounded up every Apple product on sale right now and found the retailers offering the best price. Her top picks: the newest AirPod 3 for the lowest price since they were released (her original pick, the older and cheaper AirPod 2s, have already sold out, so don’t dillydally on the 3s); the Apple Watch Series 11, which only just came out, for $50 cheaper than usual; and AirTags, because you can really never too many — especially when they’re on sale. See all her Apple deals picks here.

The Cyber Monday fashion discounts are always stellar, with so many pieces from our favorite brands discounted 40 to 50 percent off (or more). Pardilla’s favorite deals this year include now-even-cheaper Anthropologie pants, a now-$60 merino sweater at Banana Republic (that’s $12 cheaper today than it was yesterday), a dirt-cheap $13 Gap turtleneck, a $20 pair of “Jennifer Lawrence–y” Old Navy track pants, our favorite Alex Mill sweater (that readers bought in hordes last year) for under $100, and a quite-nice Boden mohair scarf for $77. For more, read her full roundup here.

Men’s Cyber Monday fashion discounts have been similarly stellar. Zhao particularly likes this $21 pair of Dickies jeans (which are reliably well-made), a surprisingly still-available jacket from Uniqlo’s latest JW Anderson collaboration, and waterproof Keen boots. Find the rest of his recommendations here.

Running is theoretically a cheap activity, but by the time you get the right shoes that won’t cause knee pain, shorts that won’t chafe, a watch that helps you track your progress, and recovery gear that helps you feel better, you’re looking at a bill north of $500. So get it all on sale. Right now, you can get Tracksmith’s Brighton Base Layer, beloved by many of us on staff, for 20 percent off (the best deal you’ll find on it); wind-blocking gloves from Janji for 20 percent off; and normally expensive “super shoes” for about the same price as non-carbon-plated running shoes. All items below are also available in men’s sizing, too. For more, see all the best running deals here.

The beauty discounts are good this year — but confusing. Many brands have discounts on the same items, so it’s hard to know where to get the best deal on each thing. Denton-Hurst is doing that work for you, so I’d strongly recommend reading her roundup before making any beauty purchase. But three deals she likes the most:a well-priced and rarely discounted Dyson, Supergoop! SPF daily cream for 40 percent off (a stellar discount for the brand), and a Victoria Beckham item for even cheaper today than it was yesterday. For more, see her full roundup here.

Another big sales holiday means another round of big deals on our favorite mattresses. As always, Jerden has rounded up all the best mattress deals. Among her top deals this year: Leesa’s mattress, which is actually cheapest at West Elm; Parachut’es almost-never-on-sale mattress, which just got even cheaper today; and nearly 20 percent off a luxury mattress from Stearns & Foster. For more, see her full roundup here.

As it’s gift-giving season, all of Wartzman’s top kitchen deals are on items she thinks anyone would be happy to receive. Misen’s mini stainless-steel saucier is just $60 (and is very adorable at 0.75 quarts). Hedley & Bennett’s chef-beloved apron comes in over two dozen color choices, so you’re bound to find one tailored to your recipient’s taste. Material Kitchen’s host set and Brightland’s vinegar would both make lovely host gifts. And a fancy brass cake server from Fog Linen and Dusen Dusen’s delightful pot holders are both cheap enough to make a stellar stocking stuffers right now. See all of her top kitchen deals here.

The home deals are wide-ranging — there are sofas and chairs, appliances like humidifiers and air purifiers, and décor from tons of brands all in the mix. Ro has been rounding up all of it in her mega home-deals post. But her top three deals are Carepod’s, which Ro uses herself and says doesn’t get moldy like other machines; Burrow’s five-piece Range sectional, which is a great option for families; and Steele’s sturdy laundry baskets on wheels, which she’s considering stocking up on. For more, see her full roundup here.

And if you’re after bedding deals specifically, Ro has found all of the ones worth buying right now. The best bedding really comes down to personal preference, but Ro has three picks for most any sleeper: Boll & Branch’s percale sheets for people who prefer cool, crisp bedding; the Company Store’s down comforter for year-round warmth; and a deeply discounted set of luxury sheets from Frette (“We’re talking $1,000 off,” Ro says). For more, see all of Ro’s top Cyber Monday bedding deals here.

Any sales holiday is a good time to buy a vacuum, and Black Friday is no exception. All three of Zhao’s top vacuum picks are over 30 percent off right now, including the Dyson V15 (the best premium cordless vacuum), the Shark Wandvac that Zhao recently named the best overall handheld vacuum, and an impressive floor cleaner at $600 off. See all his top vacuum deals here.

“While there are plenty of deeply discounted art supplies and action figures, the best deals are on the bigger, splurgier toys that kids will (hopefully) play with for a very long time,” Corsillo says. Her top three picks are all expensive-but-worth-it items: Avenlur’s wooden play gym, a “legacy” American Girl Doll that’s almost never this cheap, and a nonplastic play kitchen for under $100. For more, see her full roundup here.
